I I A squ d of nineteen reported for football the first day of school. From this group Coa h Ericson selected the thirteen who saw service throughout the season. The letter en were: Blacks: Captain Carton, Dunn, Roe and Ellis. ds: Moser and Green. ckles: Street and Storm. uards: E. Vaughn, Williams, and Mitchell. enters: Coffey and Monroe. I The slhedule opened by trouncing Seymour 13-0. This was the first time that Seym ur had appeared on the schedule in recent years. After playing a close first I alf, Leon overpowered the locals 35 to 6. Injuries took three reg- ulars out lf the lineup in the first half and the substitute combination failed to click. Th next game was a breather and the Wildcats romped over the Chari- ton reserv X 30 to 0. The ildcat aerial attack really began to function in the next game as Humeston threw the ball over and around Garden Grove to defeat them 27 to 7. Afton was the next victim of the Wildcats in a high scoring game to the tune of 24 to 1 . A margin of two points after touchdowns spelled victory for the Wildcats dver Moulton in the next game, 14- to 12. After holding Mystic, the Southern lxline Conference Champions, to a 13 to 12 score up until the third quarter, two intercepted passes in the fourth upset the Wildcats, 31 to 12. This game wasIplayed in a very strong wind and passes simply could not be suc- cessfully tllrown. The :lnnual Armistice day game was played before the largest crowd in years. Cdrydon was all set to stop the Wildcats pasisng attack, and Humeston with only three regular backs in the lineup was not conceded much of a chance. Corydon tiapitalized on a Humeston fumble to score in the first half, 6 to 0. ln the secpnd half Humeston unloosed a series of power plays and plunged the entire length of the field through the heavy Corydon line ot tie the score, 6 to 6. I Grad ating seniors who will be missed next year in the Wildcat lineup are: Franklin arton, Donald Dunn, Eugene Vaughn, Harold Williams and Robert Carter. I 2 I I I I
